I just realized something this week. I won't go into detail as to the particular situation, but I asked for something and the response back to me was meant to be 'funny'. It was actually an 'f-you'. When I called the person out on it I was told that I was 'too sensitive'. I never actually was supplied with what I requested, but there was a large attempt to make me feel as if I 'didn't get what funny was'.
Does anyone else deal with supposed humour that feels like a form of humiliation? I wonder sometimes if words are used to cloak actual intentions (aggressive intentions) that I suppose could be called gaslighting.
